Chapter 88: The Battle of Pantelleria (8)

However, his attack was unsuccessful, as the German Fω-190A-6/R1 fighter group quickly climbed and spread out to avoid his attack. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Seconds later, Jack saw two Fω-190A-6/R1 fighters flying in a row above their clouds, turning around and firing a large WGr21 air-to-air rocket at him.

"Peng! Rumble! ”

In a flash of lightning, the P-38 "Lightning" fighter piloted by Jack stepped into Jim's footsteps; Destroyed in the air, it turns into a fireball and scatters in all directions.

Although both Jim and Jack were destroyed by German Fω-190A-6/R1 fighters, the battle between the Luftwaffe and the British and American air forces was not over, but had just begun to change fiercely.

At this time, the British bomber fleet was also at an altitude of more than 4,000 meters, passing through thin clouds in the direction of Pantelleria Island.

"Stephen! Do you think the Yankees' air forces have already reached Sicily? ”

Daniel, a British pilot, said to his friend Stephen over the radio while flying the Lancaster bomber.

"Whatever they do! Anyway, our goal now is to sneak up on the German airfields and military bases before them! And we're going to bomb them so much that we can beat them by having a better record than them! ”

Stephen didn't care.

"That's right! But is there a German air force stationed on Pantelleria? ”

Daniel suddenly remembered.

"No, it's all Italian!"

Stephen shrugged his shoulders and said.

"Hey! Those Italy are so useless, so don't we make a lot of money this time and win those Yankees? ”

Daniel said gleefully.

"Of course! In fact, even if there were German troops stationed there on the island of Pantelleria, what would it be? What are we afraid of when so many bombers attack their small island? ”

Stephen replied proudly.

"That's right! If it had been a few years before the war, we would have been afraid of the German air force, but now that we have better combat aircraft than them, if we were still afraid of them, it would be a waste! And as you said, so many of us attacked them this time, and we must have scared them to death! I was so happy when I thought about it, hahaha! ”

Daniel suddenly laughed happily.

"That's right! Just like our ace pilots of the British Empire! So we have to know the Germans, and the Italians! Our British Empire is not only our navy, but in fact, the strength of our air force is also a street behind them! ”

Stephen suddenly boasted to himself as if he had been beaten with chicken blood.

"Stephen! That's a good point! I'm going to applaud and cheer for you! The Germans are doomed, and perhaps they will be overwhelmed by the surprise attack of so many of our bombers, and they will run away with their tails between their legs! Hahaha! The Germans are pigs, they are lost dogs! ”

Daniel quickly echoed and laughed.

"All pilots are in combat mode at once!" The Halifax Type 5 bomber spotted eight German fighters approaching half a mile behind us, flying thousands of feet below us! ”

"And Daniel, at 8 o'clock in the Lancaster bomber you were piloting, there was a German fighter plane, approaching quickly! You get out of the way to the left, speed up and fire your machine gun to counterattack when you turn! ”

At this moment, the captain of the 617th Bomber Squadron of the two of them, Destet, suddenly gave the battle order in a hurried tone.

"Yes! Roger that! Captain! Let me clean up these Germans who are gone! Let them know the power of the air force of our empire, and we are the overlord of the European sky! ”

Daniel stared contemptuously at the German plane, which was getting closer and closer to him, and replied triumphantly.

"Captain Stete! I'm going too! I'm going to let these Germans know I'm awesome, too! Last time, I destroyed both of them ME109 fighter jets in one go! ”

Stephen was also at the radio headset, scrambling to get out of the battle.

"Good! Let's go with the two of you! The plane of a German on the other side is also to be grabbed! Is! Don't we still have 8 Germans behind us? ”

Captain Dest feigned anger and smiled bitterly.

Because at this moment, he is not afraid of the Luftwaffe at all, and he is still ready to do a big job.

"Thank you, Captain, then we're going!"

Stephen and Daniel immediately shouted in glee.

At the same time, the two of them were also quickly in the driver's seat, controlling the steering stick, accelerating away, dodging the attack of the German fighters.

At the same time, the two of them skillfully completed a circular flight trajectory in the air and circled behind the tail of the German fighter.

"Hey! I've said these Germans are pigs! And it's a pig that is about to go away! ”

Stephen sneered with a mocking smile.

At the same time, he also prepared all the self-defense weapons on his "Lancaster" bomber, including two 0.303-inch Browning machine guns mounted in the nose turret, two 0.303-inch Browning machine guns mounted in the turret on the back of the fuselage, and four 0.303-inch Browning machine guns mounted in the tail turret, to shoot down the prey he was aiming at in front of him.

"Stephen! Get out of the way! There are German fighters behind you! Profound! O my God! It turned out to be 5 German Fω-190A-6/R1 fighters, flanking us together! ”

At this moment, Daniel, who was preparing to cooperate with the German fighter in front of him, suddenly shouted in horror from the radio headset.

"Hmmm! What did you say? ”

Stephen, who hadn't reacted yet, muttered suspiciously.

Just at this moment, three WGr21 large air-to-air rockets were rapidly launched; From behind him, at 11 o'clock, it was launched.

"Peng! Rumble......"

Two loud explosions immediately rang out.

Stephen, who was still alive and full of confidence just now, spilled blood in the sky and disappeared.

"Stephen!"

Daniel, who was still not dead in battle, howled loudly and sadly.

But no matter how sad and heartbroken he was yelling, Stephen's voice would never appear in his eardrums again.

And at this moment, he is also beginning to be difficult to protect himself; Because now he is using the nose turret to install two 0.303-inch Browning machine guns, attacking the two German Fω-190A-6/R1 fighters that are chasing them fiercely, while dodging the opponent's attack at a speed of 322 kilometers per hour.

"Captain Steter, support me! I'm dying! There are more and more fighters in the German army! And they are not the ME109 that we have encountered, but the new Fω-190A-6/R1 fighters! ”

Faced with an increasingly dangerous combat situation, Daniel suddenly desperately sent out a distress call to his squadron leader, Destell.

It's just that the other party didn't answer him, because at this moment, Destet and his entire 617th bomber squadron are fighting to the death with the German JG4 wing at an altitude of 4,800 meters!

"Oh my God! Here's what's going on! How did so many groups of German fighters suddenly appear! ”

When Daniel shouted hoarsely for a long time without getting a response from the other party, he immediately pulled up his bomber to avoid the attack of a German Fω-190A-6/R1 fighter, and at the same time quickly stared in the direction of the "Lancaster" bomber piloted by Dest, which suddenly made him gasp and gasp in horror.

Because at this moment, they are being besieged by the Fω-190A-6/R1 fighter group of the three German wings of JG3, JG4, and JG2.
